    Cast iron and carbon steel cookware: or I'll never trade in convenience for quality (and health) again!

    If I didn't feel "personally invested" in seasoning my Lodge CI & CS pans (and the Lodge CS pan is an abomination the way it comes from the factory, it's coarser than their CI pans) I'd consider picking up a set of Smithey's (or one of several cheaper Kickstarter alternatives — not as beautiful...

    Toshiba HD-A1 HDMI Issue

    The 1.2 version of the firmware that's floating around the net *has not* fixed the issue. The best I get is a brief flashing of the Toshiba's HD-DVD logo on the screen before it switches back to "no signal detected" screen. I also once saw (just as briefly) a "no disc in tray" message.

    Chinatown DVD - edited?

    Sho Kosugi ninja series

    Didn't MGM do a P&S butchery on those releases?

    Last Action Hero SE?

    I'll be happy to pick it up and can vouch for a few friends who loved the movie, too. Are we getting into double-digit fan base yet? :)

    Best Buy is Crazy!

    While I agree in general that Fry's staff is for the most part worthless (I've seen one or two exceptions in the 13 years I've been going there), some of the things have changed. If I need to return/exchange, I go there between 9 & 10 in the morning on the way to work and there's almost no line...

    1080p source material ???

    My guess (although I might be wrong) is that 1080i material is a 1920x540, not 1920x1080.
